By
Gov. Andrew Cuomo trashed Mayor Bill de Blasio and the
Democrat-dominated Assembly over their efforts to block a daycare center
regulation package—as the governor prepared to sign “emergency
regulations” instating the new rules over their resistance.
Addressing the press after an unrelated event at Grand Central
Station, the governor bashed his fellow Democrats and praised the
Republican-run State Senate, which backed proposals he laid out in
February to allow the state to more easily shutter babysitting
facilities. Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie initially endorsed the
measures, but declined to bring them to the floor for a vote following
heavy lobbying from the mayor’s office.
The de Blasio
administration was ostensibly concerned that the proposal would deprive
low-income New Yorkers of childcare options, but may have been alarmed
at the potential for further Cuomo incursions into city business.
